the only thing that's a little pain but more uncomfortable is the hole where he pulled out my gallbladder. it was full of stones and infected so it was hard to get out. My surgeon said that is not common. but everything else feels pretty good.

I am june 23rd! I am day 4 of pre op liquid diet! Getting nervous!

Would anyone be interested in starting a little exchange. We could do a pen pal thing and send a small package to someone else who is pre or post op to brighten the mood? A friend of mine did this and she said it was such an awesome feeling to talk to someone in the same boat who knew what she was going through. post here or shoot me a message if you are interested!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
